Description: A land foodfinder.
How created: Designed and evolved
The body and neural network were hand coded. The body was created by Shawn Gaston, brain created by Pete Mandik. Evolution introduced changes only to neural connection weights. Selected for distance in a world populated with food.

MacKo 2024-04: after the behavior of f1 modifiers was changed, updated the modifiers in this genotype to resemble the original shape. Evolved neural network weights a bit for speed (thus ignoring/losing food finding ability and likely discovering a new movement style), but the original genotype, even when converted to f0 with pre-2023 behavior of modifiers, hardly walked at all.
Performance notes: This is an excellent land foodfinder. In a world size of 50, auto feeding of 4, ball energy of 1000, it exhibits incredibly precise ability to orient toward a food stimulus.
